    Rubber Floor Mats?

    I just bought a set of HuskyLiner floor mats for my soon to arrive 4Runner. They had a 4 day 20% off sale. I usually only get the fronts on vehicles, but the full set wasn't much more than WeatherTech's front set. BTW, welcome to the Overland Bound forum!

    VagabondExpedition Build

    What are you using to do that trick? I've got a Nikon wireless remote for mine, and use the TriggerTrap wired app on my phone, but don't know of a wireless phone solution.

    Hi-Lift Jack

    Uh oh, I'm in trouble, then. When I do decide to get on, though, I think I'd get a Bushranger X-Jack instead. Seems more versatile.

    Hi-Lift Jack

    There are many different grades of cast iron. "Gray" iron is the type that typically fractures when it gets bashed with something. Ductile iron is tougher, and designed to have some bend in it. That's a good thing, because you'd much rather see the tools start to bend and know you've gone too...

    My DIY recovery storage

    @barg I just realized that you have a Murderspork! Is it really thicker and heavier duty than if I went to a gardens store and bought a good quality spade? I'm intrigued, but skeptical. Convince me, Steve

    need help with photography

    ISO, Aperture, and Shutter Speed all work together to create the correct exposure. More of one needs less of the others. Aperture is how large the opening in the lens is. The lower the number, the bigger the hole and the more light that gets in. The corollary to this is that the larger the...

    Laptop GPS Suggestions?

    I thought that's what the last one was, but reading it, he's asking for Android tablet. I can't recall a Windows based GPS discussion, but someone may have a suggestion. I'll change your thread title asking specifically for laptop suggestions.

    Lets talk about knife sharpening

    I've had a Lanky System [LINK] since the '70s, or maybe early '80s. It's work fine for most blades. I have bought newer stones with the high tech materials to use on it, but overall, it has worked fine. I don't have many serrated blades, so I don't know how well it does them.

    Good luck! Just this afternoon, I found that my MG, which is one year older than your Jeep, has a blown head gasket. It has 26 miles on it since a costly major engine rebuild...
